> Add a {{PathCapabilities}} interface to both FileSystem and FileContext to 
> declare the capabilities under the path of an FS
> This is needed for 
> * HADOOP-15407: declare that a dest FS supports permissions
> * object stores to declare that they offer PUT-in-place alongside 
> (slow-rename)
> * Anything else where the implementation semantics of an FS is so different 
> caller apps would benefit from probing for the underlying semantics
> I know, we want all filesystem to work *exactly* the same. But it doesn't 
> hold, especially for object stores —and to efficiently use them, callers need 
> to be able to ask for specific features.
